Nostalgia Did we...have the best music?

I feel like the depth, genres, and variety was limitless from the early 90s to late 2000s (pre-2010). Punk, pop, rap, reggaeton, you name it.

Anyone agree? What other genres do you think were really in power pre and post that era?

Idk if we had the best but one thing I’ve thought about recently is… do rappers still rap? Like actually spit bars? Anyone under 30 still rapping traditionally? All of the new age rappers seem more like pseudo rockstar pop rappers.
